The Only Kinokuniya Bookstore in Australia 🇦🇺| 在澳洲唯一一間紀伊國屋書店 🇦🇺

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Hi Steemians,

Today I'll be taking you to the only Kinokinya books store in Australia. In Japan, you see many of them around but to find a bookstore selling Asian books in the one place, this is the place to go. The bookstore is located in the Galeries in Sydney CBD so getting to there is convenient. Due to the range of books and variety of merchandises, many book stores have closed down in the city except for the Dymock's flagship store which is comparable in size and the number of books on offer.

今天我會帶你們到澳洲唯一一間紀伊國屋書店. 在日本,你會常常見到這間書店但如果在澳洲想買亞洲書本、你一定要來這裡。紀伊國屋書店是在悉尼市中心 The Galeries 裡面所以非常方便.因為這間書店實在太大的關係,很多書店都要關門除了澳洲著名書局 Dymocks.

Kinokinya Sydney is not only a Japanese book store but offers an extensive range of books in English, Chinese, comics & magazines (in English, Chinese & Japanese), and a stationary section. The books in the Chinese language are all imported from Taiwan and a small amount from China. I love visiting this books store as I can buy both Japanese and Chinese books in the one place. There is also a small art gallery displace near the front of the store and this changes regularly.

紀伊國屋書店不但有日本書籍,還有很多中英文書,漫畫和雜誌 (中,英,日),還有文具部。 中文書大多是從台灣運過來而小量是中國的.我很喜歡到這間書店因為可以同一個地方買到日本和中文書.書店門口還有不同的展覽品,他們每幾個星期會換一次

The reason why I'm here today is check out some books for making soups

今天我來書局的目的就是想找一些煲湯的食譜

A small incentive the store offer customers is their membership card. There is a small annual fee but if you love books and buy a lot in a year, then it is definitely worth joining to get their discount and special offers.

你可以參加他們的VIP計劃.你要付一年入會費但如果你是愛書的人,這個計起來很化算。而且入了會之後他們有不同的活動可以參加.

There is also a small art gallery displace near the front of the store and this changes regularly.

書店門口還有不同的展覽品,每幾個星期會換一次

$3300AUD! | $3300 澳幣!.... i am dying...

The stuff in that place is not cheap hahha

Quite sad many book stores are disappearing. We still have 2 of this in Singapore.

At least you have two left .... hope this one continues to stay

I'm glad we still have some bookstore to the fact that even school textbook are turning digital in form of e-books.

I am pretty old school (tho I'm not that old haha) but I prefer to hold onto a book than a kindle

I absolutely love Japanese stationery. They really know how to make some good stuff. I live in Thailand and we have some great Japanese stationery stores here. Thanks for sharing all the pictures. :)

That bookstore is huge huh? I can imagine the variety of books in there. I did find it quite strange that they sell shirts there as well. Are they branded shirts or do they represent something within the book store?

The shirts are not branded, more like a promotional type of thing for a book or a theme they have for the month. Yes this bookstore is huggggeeeee

Its quite sad that book stores rarely make money nowadays yet they still persist. We should be grateful for that

That's right - I'm old school, i rather hold a book than read it on a kindle lol
